No More Testing Till Tomorrow. My Husband Has The Tests Lol

acrichton !!!!!!!! That's definitely a positive. I would go and get a urine and a blood test from your doctor :)))

acrichton - your tests look great! Maybe the 2nd one was slightly lighter because your urine wasn't as concentrated? But whatever the case, it doesn't seem so much lighter that I would worry. Hope your cramps settle down, but I always get those in the beginning, too. I'm so happy for you!

steph - welcome! Good luck to you.

gds3 - to you, sweetie. I know hearing the news had to be tough, even though you love your siblings and want the best for them. Hang in there.

cristi - I pray you catch the egg and can have a stress free pregnancy. I know exactly what you mean about worrying over a m/c. I don't know if I have the strength to go through another one, either. I lay in bed last night, worrying over if it would be ok for me to cook for everyone at Christmas if I get pregnant before we go, and if I could ever forgive myself if we lost a pregnancy while we were down there. Silly to worry over something that hasn't even happened yet, but I'm really good at it. But I'm going to try to take a more positive outlook.

Afm - Lay in bed awake most of the night. I tried watching TV, then turning the TV off, but I just couldn't fall asleep. Got so hot, I had to get up and turn on the fan. I thought it was the progesterone messing with me again, but my dh woke up around 2am and told me I was burning up. Surprise! I was running a fever over 100 degrees! I was finally able to fall asleep around 3 when the Tylenol kicked in. I hate being sick! But in the back of mind, I'm wondering if I could be pregnant and my immune system is down? Started feeling cramps and a stretching/pulling sensation in my uterus during the night, too. I'm going to try to hold off testing until closer to next weekend.

Hi ladies!
CD 8 today! We just got it in after a failed attempt yesterday, hips up for 15 minutes and had real watery cm as well.
We will see how the early part of the week goes!
I hope we are blessed with a bfp this cycle!

Achrichton! So excited for you! Try not to worry too much, that is a beautiful positive!

Hello! It's been a few days. We moved into our new home. I'm CD8 today. I O in about 10 days.

Achri - Congrats!!!!! <3<3<3<3<3

Acrichton!!!
I am soooooooo happy for you my dear!
Enjoy!!!!!
Felurian i love your words

acrichton, the urine quality definitely makes a big difference. Test again tomorrow and compare yesterday's with tomorrow's. That's the easiest way to tell progression this early on.

kotikd, here is the picture I shared. I put the caption, "We went shopping after our doctor appointment today!" And people got it! I wasn't sure if they would. I also posted the one on the right in case they were still confused.

Felurian i loved the pictures!!!!
How cool!
I see soooo much happiness! !!

Thank you for sticking around!

Cristi - I didn't do follistim. I'm still new to the medicated cycles so starting slow. I did just plain clomid back in July but it ended in a chemical, so my dr thinks that I do O on my own with it. We are doing the trigger shot just to guarantee it because it's $1,000 a cycle where I go because I live near the stupid expensive Main Line suburbs of Philadelphia. I'm a late O-er, too though. Even medicated my eggs aren't ready until CD18 but he thinks it's ok. I think my big hurdle is a luteal phase defect so I'm going to do progesterone suppositories this cycle and hopefully that will help get a beanie to stick. Here's to hoping is a good cycle for us both!!

Felurian - love the picture! So sweet.
